The event will last ca. 90 minutes Tickets: 100kr. Standard / 50kr. Students and under 26 (tickets not sold via billetto with be available on the door. Mobilepay or cash) In GRAFT, Current Resonance explores the buried musicality in repetitive labour, unleashes productivity anguish through choreographed facial expressions and the sounds of boredom and dread, engages in almost grotesque levels of instrumental and physical endurance, and grapples with automated versions of themselves who seem to effortlessly carry out labour without as much as breaking a sweat. How hard are the performers willing to work? What does their sustained effort sound like? What are they working towards and who benefits from their labour? The group are joined by composer-performer Rob Durnin. About his newly commissioned work, ens ENS: "Responsive & sensitive multi-character compatible autonomous corpus; high fidelity orientation & superior permutant mono."

Mobilepay eller kontanter) I GRAFT udforsker Current Resonance den skjulte musikalitet i repetitivt arbejde, frigør produktivitetsangst gennem koreograferede ansigtsudtryk og lyden af kedsomhed og frygt, engagerer sig i næsten groteske niveauer af instrumental og fysisk udholdenhed og kæmper med automatiserede versioner af sig selv, der synes at udføre arbejdet uden besvær og uden at bryde en sved. Hvor hårdt er performerne villige til at arbejde? Hvordan lyder deres vedvarende indsats? Hvad arbejder de hen imod, og hvem drager fordel af deres arbejde? Gruppen får selskab af komponisten og performeren Rob Durnin.
